Description

LEARN TO BREAK DOWN MOVEMENT INTO ITS BIOMECHANICS USING BASIC PHYSICAL LAWS AND PRINCIPLES!


Have you ever wondered how physics can be used to describe and analyze human movement?

In this course, you’ll learn how sports movements can be broken down into their biomechanical and physical components. We focus on the six fundamental biomechanical principles that are used to describe and classify all movements in sports. In addition, you’ll get an introduction to human motion analysis and some of the most commonly used tools and applications for performance testing and sports diagnostics.

Understanding biomechanics allows us to optimize movement patterns, reduce injury risk, and design individualized training programs for athletes. These principles form the foundation of sports biomechanics and performance analysis.


Short, Focused, and Straight to the Point

This course is intentionally kept short and focused, covering only the most important fundamentals of biomechanical principles. You can complete the entire course in under one hour and still gain a significant expansion of your biomechanical knowledge.


This course provides a clear overview of the roles and tasks of biomechanics, making it ideal whether you are:

  • Completely new to biomechanics

  • Already familiar with the topic and looking to strengthen your fundamentals


As a trained biomechanist, I study human locomotion and develop methods to analyze and optimize movement. This course is based on scientifically proven concepts and practical knowledge I’ve gained through years of studying and working in the field of biomechanics.

Let me share this foundation with you!


After completing this course, you will be able to:

  1. Describe sports movements with physical principles

  2. Know the tasks and goals of biomechanics in sports

  3. Understand the physical and mechanical laws of human locomotion

  4. Know some major tools and devices in the industry that help us to analyze human movement
